Newly released photos show Bush, Cheney after 9/11

Dear Reader,
As you can imagine, more people are reading The Jerusalem Post than ever before.
Nevertheless, traditional business models are no longer sustainable and high-quality publications,
like ours, are being forced to look for new ways to keep going. Unlike many other news organizations,
we have not put up a paywall. We want to keep our journalism open
and accessible and be able to keep providing you with news
and analyses from the frontlines of Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish World.

In the photos, then-US President George W. Bush met with senior cabinet members at the President's Emergency Operations Center in the White House.

Among those seen in the images from almost 14 years ago are former Vice President Dick Cheney, Secretary of State Colin Powell and National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice.

The attacks that day killed nearly 3,000 people in New York City, Washington and Pennsylvania.

The dramatic events would go on to shape the following decade with two wars fought and a global hunt for militants from al-Qaida.

The attacks led US forces to invade Afghanistan in order to topple the Taliban rulers who had harbored al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden and Washington began a "war on terror" that ousted Iraq's Saddam Hussein and persists on several fronts to this day.
